Innovative anti-phishing app comes to iPhones
We’re always told never to click on a link we receive in an email in case doing so takes us to some dodgy phishing site where our account details are violated. But what if our email app warned us before we clicked malicious links?
Can this app protect against phishing attempts?
MetaCert isn’t fully available yet, but it does seem to be a promising solution that provides email users in enterprise and consumer markets an additional line of defense against clicking on malicious links received in email messages.
The solution emerged from the developer’s earlier work building an API to help app developers add a layer of security to WebView.
